<p class="MsoPlainText">I reprimanded my soul seven times!</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The first time:</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; When I attempted to exalt 
myself by exploiting the weak.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The second time:</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; When I feigned a limp before 
those who were crippled.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The third time:</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; When, given a choice, I elected 
the easy rather than the difficult'</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The fourth time:</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; When I made a mistake I 
consoled myself with the mistakes of others.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The fifth time:</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; When I was docile because of 
fear and then claimed to be strong in patience.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The sixth time:</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; When I held my garments 
upraised to avoid the mud of life.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The seventh time:</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; When I stood in hymnal to God 
and considered the singing a virtue.</p>
